Measure the clearance between the gearbox andvalve body unit using a feeler gauge as shown.
NOTE: Measure the clearance at the point midwaybetween the two mounting bolts.
Determine the required thickness of the 32 mmshims by subtracting the clearance obtained in thestep "c" from the total thickness of the four shims.(Total thickness of the 4 shims) - (Clearance) =
Required thickness of the shims
NOTE: Select the shims so that the total thicknessis close to. but less than, the required thickness,

Example:
Measurement is 0.28 mm (0.011 in):0.70 - O.28 = 0.42 mm (0.028 - 0.011 = O.Ot7 inl
The selected shims should be 0.28 mm lO.OtO in) and0.15 mm {0.006 in} in thickness.
lf the r€quired shim thickness is 0.10 mm or less, noshims are necessarv.

NOTE:
. Use only genuine Honda wheel weights for aluminum wheels. Non-genuine wheel weights may corrode and damagethe aluminum wheels.
. On the aluminum wheels, remove the center cap from the inside of the wheel after removing the wheel,. Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating surfaces of the front hub and brake disc,. Before installing the wheel, clean the mating surfaces of the brake disc and wheel.o Wipe off the grease before tightening the nut at the ball joint.

tnstall the knuckle in the reverse order of removal'
and pay particular attention to the following items:
. Be careful not to damage the ball joint boots
when installing the knuckle.
. Torque all mounting hardware to the specified
torque valugs.
. Torque the castls nuts to the low€r torque specl-
fications, then tighten them only far enough to
align the slot with the pin hole. Do not align the
castle nut by loosening.
. lnstall new cotter pins into the castle nuts after
torquing.
. Avoid twistin0 the sensor wires when installing
the wheel ssnsor.
. Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating
surfaces of the front hub and the inside of the
brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel, clean the mating sur-
face ofthe brake disc and the inside of the wheel
. Check the front wheel alignment, and adjust it if
necessary (see page 18-4).
